Eeeeekkk! I almost didn't make it! It {was} time for the September Cloud 9 Blog Hop and I did get something made but almost forgot to get it linked up in time! And then my post....well, I left it in draft and unscheduled. Guess that's what I get for having a busy start to the week! So here is an updated version of my post! ha!
This month's Cloud 9 blog hop was an inspiration photo of this beautiful outdoor scene. I was inspired by the tree and the hanging birdhouses. I knew right away what set I wanted to use! I've been trending toward the less=more kinda card. I like how this turned out; however, my photo doesn't show the lighter clouds very well. Those cloud stamps are SOO fun....love how Dawn illustrated them with little dots!
Here is the inspiration photo for this month:
Thanks for stopping in today.....I hope to have some serious crafty time this afternoon. But first, I'm having a lunch date at school with my son!
